Oh I definitely see what you mean. But I think Tulisa wants to try and change the groups so that they aren't so clichéd and stuff. Watching her talk about the groups on Xtra Factor, it's like she knows exactly what she wants to get from them and I think she'll definitely try her best to get that.

 

I also agree on the promotional makeover things! I'm expecting them to turn Sami into Michelle McManus at some point!

What can Tulisa really do though when all any of them will have had is 5 minutes on either episode next week for the British people to JUDGE THEM and ACTUALLY LIKE THEM. Tulisa may talk with confidence but I doubt she has any REVOLUTIONARY ideas that can save this bankrupt category. We've got an RnB boyband, a HSM boyband and the Wanted, what other niche can they pull from to get any viewer on side?

 

As for the girl groups there never is nor will there ever be a chance. The production team fall back on the same lazy stereotypes time and again, the shitty choice of band names, over-dressed, over-made-up image and generally ropey vox (hence why none of them made it as solo artists). Which in itself begs the question why the Groups category has turned into the DREGS of the boys and girls. You can't make it on your own but put 5 SUBPAR singers together makes a quality group? Logic failure.

I agree about the shitty names. The RISK?! Misfits (and the band with that name already exists)?! The Keys (worst name EVER)?! GOOD GOD.

 

I've never seen Girl vs. Boy sing before and yet they are through. Talk about equal airtime :blink: Mixed groups are incredibly underestimated and overlooked.

 

Goldie and Kitty through :w00t: Kendro out :w00t:

 

Tulisa going to Greece SHOCKER.

I'm personally most excited for the first look at the LIVE SHOW MAKEOVERS. I wonder if anyone can compete with Mary Byrne's REINCARNATION into Dawn French last year?

 

I think they may go for a makeover along the lines of turning Jade into Mary Byrne.

 

On another note - not sure if its true or not (but I suspect it is - even though it is from The Sun website):

 

 

Gary Barlow is writing the winner's song!

Hmmm!

What a shame he didn't save the Geraldine song that he wrote for this momentous occasion :lol:

 

As long as it's not another dire cover. We should be grateful for small mercies...

 

That spoiler is PLEASING, if only because if it's true it'll be an original song rather than another "inspirational" cover.

 

I am LOVING The X Factor after a very slow start. The new panel make the show so much fresher. I really liked Simon, Cheryl and Dannii but it's only now I'm quite into the new show that I realise how stagnant and in need of a revamp it was. I am particularly loving Kelly and appreciating Gary.

 

As for the contestants, I probably couldn't name more than five off the top of my head. I still think the talent is below average compared to other years.

Double edged sword I suppose. As much as I hate covers (and most of them from this show have been dire I'll admit) maybe an upbeat one would be nice as opposed to the plodding ballad we're going to get - and you have to admit - a lot of his songs sound the same.

There is one worrying thing though, if it is true

Given his disdain and remarks if he had been given the 'overs' or 'groups' he'll be writing with a fixed agenda 'boring ballad for girl or boy'. He won't write anything mature or with a group in mind

. Which actually leads me to believe that the rumour (thankfully) isn't true.

However! If he wrote it with Rob things could be different! We may get something along the lines of 'Shame'

What a fucking diva.

Actually GUTTED Kendro didn't go through to the judges' houses.

 

Hoping they'll release 'Do the Kendro' anyway!!

Blue hair and a general Telletubby-lite image is the DAGGER IN THE COFFIN for any act on X-Factor :(

Despite me quite not liking them I this particular performance (or 14 seconds they showed of it) I enjoyed, and thought they'd get through actually. :o

 

DO THE KENDRO OMG. LOL at Kelly after :lol:

 

 

Let's see who are my favourites in each category...

 

Boys - Joe Cox

Girls - Misha / Janet

Over 25s - Goldie / Kitty

Groups - 2 Shoes

 

Seriously don't see how Frankie Cocozza is THAT good. But I guess he will win the whole thing now since he managed to bring Iris to 2nd place on iTunes overnight. Which is annoying.

I think Kitty is the obvious STAR-IN-WAITING for this series. A few scones short of afternoon tea in the mind-department, a generally cunty personality, £2000 light up dresses and who knows where she might go should she make it to the live shows with Louis Walsh's individual style of mentoring *.*

Boys - Marcus

Girls - Sophie Habibis

Over 25s - Kitty (yes, she's ridiculously dramatic, but I think she's the most talented in the group by a long way!)

Groups - 2 Shoes (best of a bad bunch)

 

Totally agree with you on Frankie, Pavel. He pisses me riiiiight off.

Twas indeed 'divarish' Pav my dear!

 

I don't care much for Kelly but I hope anyone wins this except Gary Barlow.

 

Kath

What a shame that my favourite acts are in the overs and that Louis will only let the stupidest ones through to the finals.
Kitty Lightning is AMAZING. She'll be the one I'm most interested to see every week I think.
I think Louis will put Goldie, Kitty, Terry and Sam through. I don't believe others have the 'Louis factor' :lol: Carolynne, Joseph and Jonjo are too boring for him. :lol:

STANNDING OVATION, A CHEERING CROWD

 

Kitty: "I don't think the audience got me"

Girls - Misha / Janet

 

Janet 4eva

 

Kitty reminds me too much of my art tutor from last year who I couldn't stand so I despise her too by default.

An art tutor like Kitty? At 'Smiths? I think I may have found my STALKING VICTIM already *.*
